Re: [R] random forest and vegetation data

First things first: There's no "final tree" in random forests. You get a set of trees (i.e., a forest). Secondly, a forest "cannot be interpreted" because of the complexity, not because the splits can't possibly make sense. You can try to interpret the trees, as long as you understand the poten
